Don't tell the mods how to do their jobs.
« on: 27 June 2005, 08:01 »
If a thread is violating the rules, tell a mod, in private, about it.

Don't tell a mod to bin a thread, ask them to look at it and decide.

For a mod it's annoying as piss to see a thread cluttered up with a thousand posts saying "bin" or "lock this"  Let the mods make up their own damn minds!

I had to get that off my chest, the frustration came from elsewhere, but applies here.
2 motherfuckers have sigged me so far.  Fuck yeah!

i agree with skyman on this ocassion.

not that i give a toss, i'm not a moderator, but even for users it's a waste of space to see posts containing nothing except "bin this".

Just for the record, I also agree with skyman, just in case anyone coulndn't tell my previous post was a joke.

Let's bin all "1 vote for bin" posts.

Does telling a bad joke twice make it any funnier?

Isn't this thread just an example of backseat modding anyways? If it was an issue, a mod or admin would have made the thread. Unless you are a mod, in which case I'll just shut the fuck up.

disappointment

n 1: a feeling of dissatisfaction that results when your expectations are not realized; "his hopes were so high he was doomed to disappointment" [syn: letdown] 2: an act (or failure to act) that disappoints someone [syn: dashing hopes]

Would it make you feel better if I said that he took the words out of my mouth? Not that he did, but just for argument's sake...

It loses its strength and becomes a parody of itself if he isn't a mod.

"Dont backseat mod, even though that is what I am doing now."

Seems silly to me.

You never complained to me about it once.

The only two members who actually gave good suggestions aren't moderators (one is actually a "normal" member).
